2 MHRA Oversees compliance with Blood safety and quality regulations Annual compliance report submitted by each transfusion laboratory. Inspections if deemed necessary Inspects QMS using EudraLex - Volume 4 Good manufacturing practice (GMP) Guidelines. UKAS Only laboratory accreditation body in the UK Checks for compliance with: Medical laboratories Requirements for quality and competence (ISO 15189(2012) Regular on-site assessments.
3 ISO (2012) is intended to cover laboratories providing diagnostic test results to clinicians. UKAS only accredits tests performed on samples Blood grouping, antibody screening and identification, crossmatching, Kleihauer etc. It does not accredit for other activities; thawing of components, issuing components etc. Includes aspects not associated with the laboratory. Clinical advice Pre testing procedures e.g. phlebotomy Involves several assessors over several days. Includes peer assessors
4 BSQR covers blood transfusion laboratories only and is intended to ensure safe components are provided to patients. MHRA is not a accreditation body. Inspection includes all laboratory aspects of component provision Thawing of components. Issue of components. No regular inspections. Usually involves one inspector for one day

9 Comparison of a measurement (e.g. weight, temperature, time) given by equipment to that of a known standard which is traceable to a recognised source. ISO/IEC 17025:2005 General requirements for the competence of testing and calibration laboratories.
10 Equipment used to perform a check is certified to ISO17025 Does not require the piece of lab equipment to be certified itself Equipment is not calibrated unless the equipment is certified as calibrated to ISO17025 MHRA UKAS
11 Only required by UKAS. Really designed to give uncertainty of measurement for measured quantities (e.g. ±2 SD). Need to evaluate all possible sources of error including. random and systematic effects from human operators metrological characteristics of the equipment used. Very difficult to produce a value for uncertainty for most blood transfusion results.
12 MHRA is working with UKAS to understand where there may be commonalities in approach which might lead to a reduction in burden for HBB. Early stages of discussion, and no timelines have been agreed.
13 Why we should have both Mallika Sekhar Royal Free Hospital
14 SHOT 2015 Headline: Laboratory errors have increased from 334 in 2014 to 455 in 2015 Deaths related to transfusion reported in 2015 n=26 Major morbidity (serious harm) reported in 2015 n=166 Near miss incidents: Total 288 possible ABOincompatible transfusions
15 MHRA/SHOT UKAS/ISO NICE BCSH

17 Martin Maley RCI Head of Laboratory NHSBT Newcastle
18 My own personal experiences Spoke to QA colleagues You can t say that MHRA v UKAS in RCI Differences Value
19 Time allocated to RCI lab 2-3 hours for us and H+I Sticking to schedule Not covering all areas of NHSBT (MHRA) Thoroughness
20 Areas inspected Assessor practices / specialities Same MHRA assessor = same areas audited I m not a serologist but... Assessor continuity Links in with time
21 Discussion of NCs at the time they are found Discussion of NCs at the end of the session Closing meeting Responses to findings (time)
22 Raise nationally (UKAS accreditation applied for nationally as a function) Findings in the pocket Findings should be constructive
23 MHRA has not added value or even given a feeling that it will add value UKAS adds value, highlights noncompliance with ISO15189
24 Auditee confidence Feeling of contribution to continuous improvement culture Should be put at ease Creates culture of openness
25 MHRA and UKAS both have a huge role to play RCI UKAS adds more value, is more thorough, feels part of the CI culture If UKAS cover all aspects of RCI that MHRA would want to assess, then MHRA can concentrate on other areas of NHSBT Discussions are at an early stage but are happening
26 Richard Haggas Blood Transfusion Quality Manager Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust
27 Main role: To provide safe blood components and products for patients This is the purpose of blood safety regulations Minor role: To provide diagnostic tests results FMH estimation DAT Ante-natal blood grouping and antibody screening Hospital blood banks have more in common with a pharmacy than with other pathology laboratories.
28 Does UKAS accreditation add value over and above BSQR compliance and improve the Hospital Blood Bank? A lot of extra work to ensure compliance
29 UKAS: mapping of fridges should be done using17025 certified probes as the storage temperature is critical. Requirement for storage is 2 to 6 o C; generally accepted that checking should be with an accuracy of +/- 0.5 o C At 2 o C ±0.5 o C is within 25% At 6 o C ±0.5 o C is within 8% MHRA acceptance of probes checked with a calibrated probe would seem reasonable.
30 We should know what causes variation in our testing Do we need to quantify it? We need to show that we are doing things to reduce its influence Are we doing things to check the accuracy of our results? QC EQA Comparability checking
31 The rest of the Pathology labs could remain accredited Don t include blood bank tests in your UKAS application.
32 Catherine Lorenzen Chief Biomedical Scientist Kent & Canterbury Hospital
33 Multiple inspections are a waste of resource! We are supposed to be making our processes: more efficient, less costly, more effective, streamlined. even profitable!
34 Are we spending so much time on proving how we do things that we no longer do them as efficiently as we could?
35 When we are inspected isn t it better to get it right first time? We shouldn t need a second check by another technique..
36 Albert Einstein said The definition of insanity is doing something over and over again and expecting a different outcome
